The top surface is the same as the rest of the unit. We had a piece of glass cut for the top to protect it.

Im not sure if its wood or particle board. Its coated in what appears to be laminate. Its the only thing about the bar i don't like. I painted the top with an enamel paint to protect the surface from water damage from glasses, etc.Hope this helps.

The top bar is for balancing the wheel. The lower ones are for truing the wheel. They hold the wheel in place for spoke adjustments. I used it to lace a wheel with a new set of spokes and it worked great.

The top is brushed aluminum and the bottom is white plastic. Looks very nice. It is a great very fast light laptop.

The top is laminate. However, the sound is wonderful. I have more expensive instruments but reach for this one most often.

The little top is plastic. I had one just like this for about 7 years and dropped it on concrete, which made a crack. When I found them again I bought two so I would be out again.

It's lightweight aluminum. Should be no problem to re-locate from place to place. Note: height adjustment is critical for patient comfort (especially if too high and patients feet do not reach the floor) . Splash shield height is less a factor than is the front bar.

I am not sure, I got it for my daughter that lives out of town. I do know that I am not really a fan of the top of it. It has a vinyl foamy type top I was hoping for a harder surface.

The bar is riveted to it's mounting bracket. I supose you can grind off the rivet if you want to just use the bar.

Chris, The bar is very solid in quality, and feels like it. The knurling is well done and provides a good gripping surface for the hand, unlike those thicker diameter bars that have a slippery enameled finish. If your hands are wet with those, your hand just slips off... especially if your hands are small. While the mounting plates are solid, and the bar is made of a tubular heavy gauge metal, the Bar itself is actually hollow. It just doesn't look or feel hollow. Hope this helps you out.

the top is solid pine but the rest is particle board. Mine cracked clean through within the first 6 months of use.

I checked with my granddaughter (a university student) who I ordered them for to be sure. She says the bar is "made of wood, has survived 3 moves with no problems, very sturdy."

The ends are capped. It's a very solid bar, and probably about the best you're going to get for this price range. My spring collars didn't fit it though, so I ended up buying some lock-jaw collars that, for the moment, seem good. If you ever outgrow this bar (doubtful) in the future, then you could check out bars from rogue fitness. They carry plenty of quality power and Olympic bars. This bar is probably all you'll ever need though.

The mount is plastic with a chromed plastic cover at each end. The bar itself is metal. It is very durable, but I would not use it as a grab bar.

The top bar does not telescope. It comes in 4 pieces and can use from 2 to 4 of the sections. The 4 section assembled top bar is fairly sturdy but not great. It sags a bit in the center. The end polls, however, are excellent for the price and are pneumatic.
